:roflmao

well riozz will agree with you on this 1 , big time

& he has a new hot Shige banner now :thud

the only guys i find attractive the most, in NEWS, are shige/ryo/yamapi. the other 3 are just good looking in general, lol.

YESSSSS NEW SINGLE i think...

http://www.nikkansports.com/entertai...17-397553.html

i think it's for lawson or RUSS-K again. not sure...but it's not ryusei no kizuna after all (no surprise). :laugh either way, i think it's for a new CM, but can someone translate the article or something?

T_______________________T

guess this means that I'm the only 1 who likes Tegoshi & doesn't find him girly

:thud

wow it will be awesome if it's for a new single release

it's supposed to be a mature sounding song, too! :dead2 we hear it in 2 days, i read from JPM. it's called "happy birthday", i think...?

eh what's wrong with a mature sounding song ? That happened for Taiyou no Namida , maybe it will be a part 2 of it ?

no i'm happy about a mature sounding song. i just really wanna know what they define as "mature", lol. rock like "liar", maybe? "taiyou no namida"? (:luv2)

ooh I don't know but I hope the title wouldn't be lame . Then again sometimes songs that have somewhat strange/weird titles will sound great when you hear the full song/s

But I'm not that optimistic with Happy Birthday

I saw clips of the press con for the new Kose product this morning on the news. The set was all pink and NEWS were holding pink roses since it's the scent.
As far as the song, it didn't sound more "mature" to me as it was playing in the background but maybe the song as a whole is? I have no idea.

i'm surprised but happy that Massu is on the lover list ^^
he is so adorable and seems really sweet! ^^
"MASSU POP-UP! MASSU POP-UP!" lol

yay! can't wait to see/hear the new NEWS Kose CM! Pi with a rose? *SWOONS*
i am so head over heels for Pi right now lol esp. after watching him in SHOCK ME and Gomen ne Juliet on the pacific con dvd ^^

which i still need to watch the 2nd half of

is it so ? like in what occasions Tegoshi is girly ?

I'm probably the only 1 who can't see it :dead2

so the CM aired already? i guess i'll be searching for it, lol.

pi with a rose ?????

so it's kose ? kose isn,t for girls ?
anyway


karen ~ uhm honestly right now I don,t remember XD


pi with a rose :faint :luv2

dude, if itz a fragrance from Kose, I am TOTALLY getting it next time i go to Tokyo! ^^

here's a YT Mezamashi clip for the Kose song, which was originally posted @ news_jpop: HAPPY BATH DAY? LOL

i don't know how it sounds "mature" either. :laugh

gonna listen now...but i think happy bath day is the slogan, isn't happy birthday the actual title? lol.

anyway, i really like the song. sounds pretty different and cute. but wow, shige needs black hair back ASAP. the white background makes his hair stick out even more :weep. but NEWS looks..gooood. :D

wooo I love the white suits. sexy

but uhmm...mature? XD but maybe hearing the whole song will change the perception
for now I think I will really like this song (^-^)

I think that Happy Birthday isn,t the song title now.
I think it's more related to the cm than the song as we can see

they said this about the scent of the new bath products the CM is for: "If we passed by a girl who was wearing this fragrance, we will definitely turn around to give her a second look."

ok. so i know itz just PR... BUT
I am still SO going to buy the stuff even more now that they said that lol

ohhh, i don't know if that's the title of the song, but just looking at the clip, it stood out to me. :P

LOL

so minna are you going to get the 1st press of the pacific tour DVD from YesAsia ?

My younger sister & I are probably gonna wait for the OS press to be out

& talking about dvd , later on I better go watch the Never Ending Wonderful Story DVD , supposed to do so last week but I haven't got that yet :dead2

I will do so after gymming & lunch

is that in a good or bad way Irene ?

haha :laugh

it's already long overdue for them to put out another new single since SUMMER TIME which was released in May

maybe they will do something like what happened to weeeek & pacific in that they will release their new single & album at the same time again ?

i don't know, but it made me laugh. :)

i can't wait to hear the full song.

:Cry

new single and limied edition
what a great news and bad news Shige didnt get top 10

i can't stop playing the CM. i think the song's catchy already, lol.

another KOSE CM and conference (with more of "happy birthday")

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6tJsEY7a08

shige says that he once gave a girl a rose for her birthday, and the number of petals was supposed to stand for how old she was. god, i envy whoever that was!! :weep

and pics! magically, shige is back to black and yamapi has no perm?!



tell me that the pics are recent and the CM isn't! :weep

aw bless Shige :( didn't realise that he was such a romantic at heart

Happy Bath Day - what a cute title :laugh

hmmm..i guess the ads were taken before promotion of this product. but i still hope shige gets back in action with his hair b the end of the year. preferrably before the new wsingle release, though, but i doubt it.

anyway, i cannot stop playing daite senorita right now, lol. maybe i should watch kurosagi :laugh

haha :laugh

talking about Daite Senorita , I probably should start listening to the song again , has been a while since I last heard it

while i do love daite senorita (my first JE purchase, actually) i think kurosagi is boring XD yamapi's angst moments were kinda hot i suppose. he & maki horikita are a cute couple, too. and awww, shige <3 ;-; so adorable & romantic. this single should be flippin' awesome!

I was actually quite shocked when I 1st saw the Daite Senorita PV bcos I don't watch the drama/movie Kurosagi

Yamapi really can punch people up like there's no tomorrow

Literally

yeah, that scene in the video was pretty awesome. especially at the end where he just kind falls back XD and i forgot about the kurosagi movie, i wonder if it's any better than the drama...has anyone in this thread watched it? :O

umm if I'm correct my younger sister has watched both the drama & movie of Kurosagi

I can ask her opinions abt the movie if you want

that would be cool ;D because i've heard different things about it, xD

heh sure I will get that to you later on on it

EDIT - ok I asked my younger sister already & apparently she hasn't watched it yet :dead2

but she said that her friend who's a closet Yamapi freak mentioned in the movie , Yamapi has more disguises & even pointed out his middle finger in the movie :roflmao

wooow they had returned back...

so how did their pacific tour DVD fared in the 1st week ?

^ not yet..
they'll annouce it tomorrow. at least 100K by first week

ok, i finally got to watch the CM! ^^ I really like "Happy Birthday" ^^ and i SO want those products! ^^

longer clip of "happy birthday" in the making-of for the CM.

http://www.kose.co.jp/cosme/hbd/top.html

Thank you! :)

you are welcome ayupi :D

and thanks lisa for the making of :P

:hi5

FINALLY , someone said that Tegoshi's hot :roflmao :laugh

stream another longer preview of "happy birthday", lol.

http://www.imeem.com/ki-ra/music/uHv...appy_birthday/

LOL

thanks Lisa , I need it :laugh

so is it confirmed that Happy Birthday will be their new single or it's just used in the new Kose CM ad ?

nothing's confirmed yet, but i read something about something being released in the fall, i dunno. maybe it's a single or an upcoming album track.

ooh ok

hopefully it will be a new single , it's quite long overdue not to mention a new album as well

People have commented that Tegoshi's all girly like since he went blonde :dead2

I think he looks great in blonde hair now . He doesn't really stand out to me before that

idk, i used to like Tegoshi. but, now i don't, haha. i guess it was just a little phase. i love Ryo~

mmm, "Happy Birthday" sounds more like an album track, imo. i think they are overdue for an album anyway. :P

Thank god Yamapi went back to his usual hairstyle... All looking hot in there epecially Ryo!

For now, i'm not really feeling Happy birthday...probably have to listen to the whole song...

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY"'s cute. ^^ Somehow it reminds me a little of Taguchi's "Natsu no Basho". I think it's the singing style (the wow oh~'s). ^^;

someone went a leetle crazy w/the jelly...

^ O_O

that's quite gross :dead2

I wonder what riozz has to say about it :innocent

OhMyGOD..
is it real or fanmade?? if it was fanmade that guy should be killed :P

weekly Music DVD ranking:

*1　--　141,593　141,593　*1　NEWS CONCERT TOUR pacific 2007 2008-THE FIRST TOKYO DOME CONCERT- / NEWS

"LOVE JAM" anyone? LOL

great 1st week sales

hopefully the OS press will be out soon

LOL :laugh

come to think about it , yes it's LOVE JAM part 2 but except it's the male version of it haha

^Yeah. :yes Especially the left picture, because he sticks out his tongue. Like Ai. x3

oh yes that :roflmao

http://img248.imagevenue.com/loc141/..._122_141lo.jpg

otsuka :

http://wiki.theppn.org/images/thumb/...love_jam_2.jpg

the different between them is shige has naughty look and Ai has cute look

^ LOL

I thought you were going to say the colour of the jam on their faces or something else

LOLOL. :laugh oh shige. he even looks hot with jelly splattered all over his cutie face :laugh

:laugh

although it's kinda....like karen said XD it,s kinda gross XDDD

haha i love those pics of Shige.

tho i am liking his blonde hair, i am SO SICK of his freaking FAUX-HAWK! >.< time for a new style PLEASE!!! >.<

and i miss Pi's straight hair now... I hope they do more CMs for Happy Bath Day and that my hair corrections are taken into consideration lol

the scans are from the pamphlet for shige's butai, there's only two or three other pics where he's wearing jelly xD the rest of the scans are nice though <3

yes it's & I still stand by the fact that the colour of the jam on Shige & otsuka

otsuka's case - at least the jam looks appetising :laugh

Shige - er not really :P

ooh ok

your Shige banner's :thud

I'm still hoping for a new album but at the moment , this will do ! & lol of all the days they choose to release their new single , it has to be on Children's Day :laugh

yattaaa! a new album is definitely coming up, hopefully soon. but for some reason i keep seeing the title as "happy bathday" XD game of love & push on sound like they'll be good b-sides. NEWS always has awesome coupling songs~

I actually like Happy Bath Day more than Happy Birthday cos it sounded more cute :laugh

I look forward to their new single NOW

Wow, SEAMO wrote the song? =O Johnny's sure get some interesting people writing songs for them (like GReeeeN).
Looking forward to the new single. ^^ Though I would have prefered a new album, because we already had three singles. But if the albumtracks will balance that out, I won't complain. =P

what best month.. HAHAHA
after SPEED now my NewS brought GREAT NEWS

Wow... really like SEAMO when he collaborated with Azu for the song Jikan yo tomare.... Looking forward to their new single... (It's ABOUT TIME!)

WTF YAY!!!! october is my month this year, haha. i can't wait!!

but wow, SEAMO produced the song or something? cool :P

LOL :laugh

man & I thought it's just Sept , I will go broke

now it's 2 months :weep

it should have came out any day between october 13-23. since i'm home from school then, lol. but i guess the PV will be out in september for sure.

I hope you're right..:D
I hope this is the last single and they will release album

I hope JE wouldn't be like J Storm where they release the PV like 2 weeks before the single release :eviltongu

I hope so Ryo because I haven't seen a JE album that contains 4 singles

at max it's 3

yeah it's coming out in October :yatta
will preorder as soon as possible :D
although...who's SEAMO?


Happy Birthday....so it'S....real uh? :laugh

SEAMO: http://wiki.theppn.org/SEAMO

Ahhhhh ok :yes
thanks lisa :D


I wonder what the covers will look like ?
all of them around a b-day cake? :laugh j/k j/k

QUEEN OF PIRATES came after 4 singles, but it has only 3. Maybe NEWS will put 3 on the album?

I hope there will be another single after Happy Birthday seeing as only 1 of them is any good so far. =x Plus, it'd make JE more money by releasing another single and an album following. :D

wow, SEAMO?! awesome! :D
Johnny's always get interesting artists to write/produce/whatever for their groups. hopefully, this will be a good one, like GReeeeN did for "weeeek"!

i like the title "GAME of LOVE" for the b-side. i'm curious to hear it. :yes

...but i don't think this will be on their upcoming album.

Pourquoi?

...Helena Paparizou has a song called Game Of Love. It's totally ozzm. :heart

^ because there are 3 singles already for the album (weeeek, Taiyou no Namida, & SUMMER TIME).

i haven't seen a JE album w/ 4+ singles. :)

can anyone help me for mu-mo's link??

LOL yes it's real , CDJapan even confirmed it on their website

same thing goes for me Irene , I haven't seen a JE album with 4 singles .

Maybe NEWS will be the 1st to break that 'barrier' ?

eh what about Ryo ?

for preordering HAPPY BIRTHDAY's single:lech

you mean CDJapan because mu-mo belongs to avex :dead2

er dude NEWS's under JE

see here -> http://www.ahsforum.com/forum/showpo...&postcount=474
